Your character model disappears when you enter hypercruise. The moment the countdown stops and you enter witchspace, your chair is empty. The moment your ship arrives in your target system, your model plops into existence again.

Kinda surprising to see that they modelled the seat under your ass/legs. Makes me optimistic regarding space legs.

I want to park my ship near a ring while I walk around the cockpit and observation deck staring at the void while getting obscenely smashed.

I want to enter a planet's gravity well, turn off my engines and stare out the window as my ship plummets towards the surface.

The first part should be doable, but I have my doubts about space legs in moving ships. If I got the first part I would autustically travel as far away from the galaxy as possible, just so I could turn around and stare at the Milky Way from my observation deck.

Elite has no artificial gravity or inertial compensation. Moving around while in motion is not a problem for the engine, but you'll probably get thrown around if there's acceleration and you aren't attached to something.

I don't remember, I launched ED today and it's in the controls when you scroll down. There's a section for the new camera stuff.

The vibe I get is that if you're gonna spend money just CH stuff. Thrustmaster is shinier "cooler" but every thing Ive ever read about CH saying their build quality is top of the pile, because they're an industrial manufacturer making game controllers, not a game controller company.

Well, it's a new feature from FD, so it's safe to assume that it's buggy as shit and barely useable. There will be a series of bug fix patches over the next month or two to get it into a "minimally viable" state, at which point everyone will have already stopped playing, again.

not even slightly. i knew a guy named artysu who prestige'd eight times and got to elite in the rank and around the time of news breaking that the CQC tournament was being killed i just stopped spotting him online. we'd talk occasionally about hoping that frontier would give us info sooner or later but it never came.

i am just an amateur in cqc. he had the maps down to the level of basically playing quake with the pickup dominance in a gu-97 and whilst i could put him to the edge of the knife in a fair dogfight, he'd without exception find a way to breeze through the pertinent ship boost to turn the tables and facefuck me on the spot. absolutely brutal. i was excited about trying to learn the mode to such an extend when reason was provided but it of course never materialized

"Comfy" is such a fucking meme and gets tossed around with people not understanding what the fuck it means. I'm assuming you mean that it makes you feel like a real ship captain that you can lay back and let your "turrets" of your "frigate" do the work for you. The problem is that it doesn't feel "comfy" at all when I know that the turrets are fucking useless against anything bigger than a Viper.

I would compare it to how EVE has Scope updates that tell you what's happening in-game and to expand on lore a bit. The only way you can know about it is if you actually go out and read Galnet articles or look up autistic videos like this that deconstruct all this shit. The difference of course being that EVE's lore is much more interesting and is much more player driven than whatever fucking celebrity drama Elite writers can shit out.

Can someone clarify something for me?

Last year they said that they were probably hopefully going to have 3.0 by Christmas (as in they thought it could really be done).

Now they are saying that they will have the 3.0 SCHEDULE done by mid April of this year.

So, either they lied to the players or were so massively incompetent that they misjudged a release date to a staggeringly enormous degree. I don't want to believe either of these, so can someone offer a better explanation?

I just want to fly ships around and land on planets.

Yeah, but the attitude of "Chris has to sign off on material" is one we've seen throughout the entire company. It's clear that they have a CEO shaped bottleneck, and it means that no matter how many employees they have those employees can only produce content at a certain rate since so much of it has to go past one man.

This shit was literally the only thing I had to look forward to today. I am depressed, and lonely and in serious physical pain every waking moment and my family is at each other throats and I have just been having a shitty month in general and I woke up looking forward to this at least. At least its thursday and I'll have something, anything at all, new in SC to look forward to. And I spent the entire evening waiting two more hours several times in a row.

Fuck you Disco and your bullshit and you "lol guiz its reddits fault" memes, Fuck you Chris and you're autistic control fetish, Fuck You Ben and your Unending fuckery ruining everything it touches, Fuck you Sandi and your Jewish marketing tricks. I am done promoting your game. I have put a great deal of time and effort into your defense, but you do not fucking deserve it anymore. You've drunk your own koolaid and believe the drones when they say that anything you decide to do or not do is ok. This pattern of casual, unexplained and un-acknowledged laziness has killed my excitement for this project. I cannot think to it anymore without getting angry and I wonder if it will ever reach a state where the delivery overshadows the mountain of frustration it is built on.

Again, issue council. pretty much anything that goes wrong, you can search it on the issue council and confirm it.

So if you wanted to drive a car, but some psychotic numb-nuts keeps running you off the road, totalling your car and killing your passengers that's OK? This whole "if you want to play in Open then live with it" argument is totally facetious. Open mode is not an excuse for griefing.
It's like the little pr!cks that sit by the spawn point in games like Call of Duty and just headshot everyone as they spawn. Great fun for them, totally ruins the experience for everyone else.

Like so many of the people on these forums I am sick to the back teath of the "git gud" or "that's what Open is for" arguments. FD are trying to encourage multi-player interaction, but it's the morons that hunt in starter systems for their own kicks that are basically counter-acting every effort FD make by driving players who want interaction into Private Groups, or Solo, or (in at least one case I know of) away from the game altogether.

Let's get this straight, hunting and killing noobs "for the lolz" is not what Open mode was intended for. If I wanted to deal with that kind of behaviour then I'd play CoD on the Xbox network. And don't feed me the crap about "it's Elite Dangerous". Yes it is, but it's not "Elite Sociopath".

You would think with the sheer number of complaints on all the forums about this, then FD would be looking at a decent Crime and Punishment system...

Anyway, that's my rant over, so I'll sit back and let all the usual children tell me to "git gud" or get out of Open...

It has been tried already and it doesn't work.

Griffy McGriff would just rack up a huge bounty, get into a shitwinder in some anarchy system and get his buddy to warrant scan and waste him. He's out the insurance on a sidey and his pal just exploited himself millions of credits.

Bounty payouts are now capped at 1mil for exactly this reason. No matter how high a player's bounty, you get can only get a max of 1mil for killing them.

The top 5 wanted players used to be listed on station news boards with their last known location but you would never find any of them because they're not always on, likely fucked off somewhere else, fucked off entirely to PG/solo or you'll just never get instanced with them because lolp2p.

Even if you did find them and started giving them what for, prolific griffers have absolutely zero compunction about combat logging, and that's assuming they're not just straight-up running cheat engine. Again, because lolp2p and no server overseeing you.

This is one of those instances where FDev could do something useful for once with their love of hidden variables. Every CMDR has hidden stats that affect how NPCs react to them. Been caught smuggling recently? Word gets around and the cops at subsequent stations might decide to prioritize scanning you. BHing and wiping out pirates a lot? Some of them might become scared shitless of you and back away if you approach. Maybe if you murder players too much law-abiding stations and contacts should overcharge for goods, offer lesser rewards for missions or just not want to deal with you anymore.

>BHing and wiping out pirates a lot? Some of them might become scared shitless of you and back away if you approach.

I've actually seen this shit happen. Back when I ran hazres all day erry day in a Vulture I noticed the pirates started behaving differently after a while.

Like I approached some pirate (was a DBS or something around that size) that was cargo scanning a miner in a T-9. As soon after I started KWSing him he suddenly stops his scan on the miner, directly comms to me "Whoa there big guy, I wasn't hurting nobody." and starts pulling away.
>>
>>173953478
It's the most retarded and disingenuous argument that a dev "is trying" to combat griefing.

It's their fucking game. their systems, their rules, and they have complete power and oversight. If they can't stop it, it's not because players are sociopaths, it's because they are fucking incompetent.
>>
>>173954521
To be perfectly clear, they're not doing jack shit to combat griefing and this is merely a suggestion of how they could use existing mechanisms they have in place right now that are impacted by your behavior.
Cops getting suspicious of you or pirates becoming scared of you is an actual thing in the game right now. Serial murderers being shunned by galactic society isn't.

Probably. It's not going to be the 'Every person in the world will be playing this game' levels of population that some of the hypebeasts are going on about. This means a lot of the fun will be in the group play, so it'll come down to how many people can get together at the same time. If no more than 18 can be in an instance together, I reckon it'll stay pretty dull and they'll get short boosts of content and population each S42 release. If they can get a relatively large number of people playing together simultaneously, then I reckon it's got a shot at being pretty fun.

I lead a balanced life where I question everything and don't accept a marketing department's version of anything.

It's entertaining in small amounts. It looks good, the sound design is very good. Under the right circumstances it can be extremely comfy. It's the kind of game that I play for a few hours every now and then when I tire of my regular "go-to" games.

Ship Shape wasn't an ad, but the footage before it was. And SS itself was shit, because while they did talk about how they're trying to make it like a FPS level and all, they didn't show how it's played and haven't touched multicrew mechanics of it beyond "you can man the turret or it slides away".
Zane's UI "leak" from earlier this week provided more insight on capital ship gameplay than this ship shape.

i imagine that the railgun is going to be useful for a man wanting to smack a hull in a delicate area (say the cockpit?) whilst it's idle and undefended. how the gun will cope with a ship's shielding is in question but several good hits to something critical and the vessel, probably up to a mid-size, will be scarred well enough.

Much like the other ships that had them, then didn't, I would expect them to have been made into fixed thrusters. This is the our only indication of what to expect.

It would be cool for them to still be there, but given the current release of similar ideas, just don't expect it. If it gets put back into the design, it'll be a pleasant surprise.

At least killing Autistic solo cap shitbirds in javelins is going to be REALLY EASY, just tuck in behind and literally fuck them in the ass. With few or no other players to split attention and respond to flanking there will be nothing they can do about it. A few gladiators with torps and rocketpods will probably be able to thoroughly cripple a jav without getting so much as scratched paint in return. Just pull in match velocity and unload.

Keep believing that if it helps you live out your fantasy version of SC where you can solo a cap and not get immediately raped. That fantasy is the only realization you'll ever get. No amount of grinding in your aurora Is going to let you fly a javelin solo. They are group content, if you want to do Cap ship things, join or form a group and acquire one. Then crew it. Even if you can move one around solo, you will not have control enough NPCs to man it and there will be a low cap on how many individual NPCs each player can control. You'll be able to use mid sized multicrew ships with just one Human player, But not anything larger than like a Hull C or Constellation. Orion, Reclaimer, Starfarer, D Hull, Endeavor, and anything else that size and larger will require more than one Human to control effectively. Because it will take an entire human to manage navigation and command, and it will take more than NPCs to manage the ships other systems. You will need a gun captain to command the ships turreted weapons, because the pilot/captain. Will not be able to see threats that are not in front of him and will be too bust flying to be situationally aware in a combat sense.

Also you're a monkey, and nothing you ever do will change that.

it's kinda tempting but i've already gotten a good taste of the caterpillar and i'm convinced that hueglong ships in this game will prove unhelpful in some aspects while still conferring the capacities and capabilities they do. something like a merchantman with its more enclosed nature, xenos shit be damned, would be more up my alley for a dedicated trader but it's dirt constellation for me otherwise. much more salt-of-the-earth.

Connection issues aside, MC adds nothing but a stupid minigame that is fun for maybe 30 minutes and then you realize that it is much more fun and worthwhile for you to just be in your own separate ships in a wing. MC might have been salvageable if you could wing up while being in multicrew but Frontier are fucking idiots and used the Wings code to make MC, therefore because of the spaghetti code you can't MC while in a wing. The only upside to MC is that explorers can now jump in to someone's ship to get some combat in while they're way out there in fuckoff space.

>>173994268

Because Ftroop is a terrible dev company that have fucked every single promise they have made and if I remember correctly, Brabo said that they will release the source code of the game if they ever shut down the servers so that the game can live on. They probably won't do it because Ftroop are penny-pinching kikes but just the thought of Elite being taken over by a modding community makes me hard as fuck.

You sell the freelancer for store credit

you can never lose the value of your freelancer for whatever you paid for it originally, even if it suddenly becomes $200 tomorrow after you sell it, you will be able to restore the purchase ONE time for it's original value. your account will always be worth whatever you've spent total, in store credits, so for future buying go with the mindset of how much total credit your account is worth, rather thank thinking how to replace ships 1 for 1

TLDR exchange freelancer for store credits > buy gladius with part of that credit > you can still CCU back up to freelancer with the left over credits

Ebin, simply ebin, my frond.

I still play Elite but I hate Frontier as a company with all my passion. They can't release a single update that doesn't either break the game or somehow bring bugs back that were fixed before. I've been following this game since it was announced and I still remember my fucking rage when they went back on their promise and told everyone to fuck themselves, the game would be always-online with some raggedy ass multiplayer stapled on top of it. The game is still enjoyable, sure, but due to their lack of creativity and competence, Frontier have effectively killed Elite and made it so it will never be anything more than a collection of space minigames that have no relation to each other.

i'm not making arguments for human vs AI crew, that's way too far off to be something we're arguing about. arguing against people who want their free javelin handout after doing some casual solo grind

little jimmy fucknuts in his aurora after a casual week of hitting F on some boxes goes and grabs his fully AI crewed javelin - what do you think massive PVP orgs have been doing? getting hundreds of fully AI crewed javelins, and now the game is "who has the most javelins" "lmao look at this kid trying to mine this asteroid bring in the 50 javelins" i suppose it can be like this eventually unless they find a cheeky way to limit in-lore production of the ships but both of these sound like a really fast way to kill a game

just taking this thing out for a night of org play should be on the level of a hardcore 40 man raid night, to make a shit MMO analogy - to earn one at all should be equivalent of getting your 40 man core attuned for said raid.

basic MMO stuff that is really good at keeping shitters far, far away from higher end content that requires coordination communication and skill, and provides incentive for people to actually go, you know, play the game, acquire the skills on the way, and work their way up to that high end content

the eagle's maneuverability is maintained even with modified performance drives so it can still do shit that my 815m/s courier couldn't hope to. ~600m/s with its drives is pretty chill seeing as the ship will more or less explode with so much as a scrape upon something at those speeds with how frail it is. just something to dick around JM for the moment waiting for enforcer cannons for it and Fdev to unfuck whatever happened to my performance in open mode

point being it's a pseudo starter-ship seeing as gamma/mercenary players more or less had one from the get-go

Beta/Gamma "Mercenary Edition" players got a Freagle parked in a system near their starting point.

Kickstarter backers at a certain pledge level got the option to start the game in a stock Cobra.

Except the Cobra starter package wasn't ready for release and it was actually months later when they finally implemented it in a patch. Since it was a game start package you would have had to wipe your save and start over to get it, and by then any backers who wanted a Cobra would already have one the conventional way.

Source: I am a lifetime pass KS backer because I apparently exercise very poor judgement. I had a fucking Asp and was most of the way to a Python by the time my Cobra was ready. I pay half the insurance you do, so I guess that's still something.

I love the Buccaneer but one Rattler missile is normally enough to cripple it.

It annoys me that the Hornet flies better with no engine than the Buccaneer does with one.

>>174003667

They're basically a cross between cannons and multicannons, but with a higher projectile speed than either. It's a shame they don't come in bigger sizes.

>>173998696
They can't give you mean looks while you're buttfucking them.
Seriously I'm loving this glass cannon meme, Hornets and Sabres can't do shit against you if you have the two neurons required to shoot them and circle around them at the same time.
>>
>>174005203
They can't hit you with their guns, but I think Drake put fucking confetti where the flares are supposed to be. Missiles that do nothing to Hornets and Sabres can easily destroy an engine on the Buccaneer. And for some reason the Buccaneer is gimped for missiles, it can only lock one per target.

I don't have a problem with enemy missiles, except rattlers because lmao 20 gorillion mini-missiles coming to fuck your shit up, but even those are sort of avoidable 50% of the time if you turn on AFB early enough.
Also the "only one missile lock at a time" seems pretty fair considering how overpowered the rattlers are.

>>173920382
What is the payout at that prestige?
>>
>>174006436
"Venom Rockets" - which are the little mini missiles the Rattlers fire out - as well as the Rattler itself, have 10x "signal amplification" compared to every other missile in the game when seeking (i.e post launch) for some reason.

Fuck. How bad? I like that the core gameplay is rather solid, but payouts for 90% of missions are absolutely trivial compared to the risks of having to rebuy anything more expensive than a kitted Hauler, and the sense of progression through standard gameplay is just stagnant because of it.

This last sims actually got it right, sex is binary. And "gender" is just expressed of a few choices binary choices, not a long list of how do you identify. Its really quite clever how they satisfied sjw's with out actually adding any new gender language to the game.

I am not suggesting sc do this, but if it ever comes up Chris will probably say you get two options for apparent sex, and then it is the players right to roll play what ever the fuck they want after that.

I think pirating and military ops, so I should get at least one capable pure military spec ship and then other one similar to what is on Elite Dangerous, something which is kind of versatile with some cargo space but still weapons and stuff. This is kinda exciting but I really think I shouldn't get carried away to this fantasy land where I start to think about the ships and all this because the game isn't really here yet. I can see it's a slippery slope.

Can I actually fly most of the ships already, at least test them and do pvp with them?

Polaris-Cockpit.jpg
3MB, 3000x1490px
the polaris is presently slated to rank among the highest firepower ships in the game and various aspects of its design forego utility in the name of killing potential. a magazine of 28 maximum-size torpedoes will likely be capable of (if necessary) ablating to grievous extent any known structure or ship if given opportunity for repeated runs and assumed depletion of munition stocks

it can be assumed they'll serve as superheavy strike craft that can project an area of advisable avoidance for most smaller vessels in its immediate vicinity as it rapidly (in comparison to other caps) comes and goes in its mission, hopefully only tailing off when faced with insurmountable screening upon its desired target or when a reasonable level of damage is sustained

factors to consider include its manufacturer, rsi, which creates bricks and has serious lineage in other vessels such as the bengal. a primary concern will likely prove to be the economical and meaningful expenditure of torpedoes as they are liable to simply be shot out if unattended to a dense screen, miss outright, or be intercepted by some means. (a ship of lesser value may well be expected in some form of engagement one day to take one for the team and position the tip into his face to detonate it then and there, presuming the torp isn't smart enough to not care and careen through them) atop this is the very likely relatively extreme expense in deploying such munitions and the costs associated with keeping them stocked with these primary intended forms of damage dealing

discuss the best ship. this is what people will eventually end up throwing money at each other in

The vulnerability of the polaris is going to be it's lack of firepower aside from the torps. How long they take to cycle a torpedo from mag to firing position is unclear and aside from the four tubes it's weapon loadout is rather anemic for its size.

12x S4 on 6 Twin turrets, 2x S5, 32x S3 Missiles on 2x16xS3 racks. Enough to ward off fighters, but not enough to engage in anything but hit and run style attacks against larger ships. On top of that, it's shields are not cap class but "large" meaning powerful but not milspec shields. It has little armor, light shielding for its size and likely wont be very fast or agile, nimble -for a cap ship- but not nimble enough to avoid fire. Very much a glass cannon for its role.

I do still hope to trade mine for a more conventional "Guns, missiles, shields and armor" type Pocket cap.

All they said in the post and video was this is super complicated nobody can predict the futures and schedules change all the time in the video game industry. The whole point of all that text and the video is to head off people who will enviably take the schedule as an indelible contract.

i feel this is where the hangar bay could indeed come in as it would allow the polaris to shit out anything from a functional EMP-mine warlock to even a pair of smaller hulls to screen it inward or ward off threats. aside from this might emerge an almost stealthy angle for the ship that might well involve exploitation of ship sensor ranges and angles to come and go and get lost to the enemy in the process, perhaps taking many minutes at a time for simple deployment of a few torpedoes before one needs to immediately scram prior to receiving substantial capital fire, returning again if they can. kinda through the submarine prism. some japanese submersibles for instance had the ability to deploy float planes so it certainly has its ww2-y analogue

the explicitly vanguard-capable javelin hangar is quite enviable, though. a polaris will need to be choosy in what it brings along. i'm far from outside the realm of melting it down for an even cooler cap should it present itself but as of this moment it's the end-all-be-all of big heavy hitting shit that can move itself around

They need accountability and they need to feel some pressure to deliver you fucking cultist. This patch was announced 6 months ago for projected release three months ago and this report is the very first thing we've heard of it since. Stop making up excuses and stop giving them the impression that endless meaningless vague predictions, de facto but unacknowledged delays and unrealistic release dates with no connection to actual progress are OK things. And yes if they miss the release target they just posted by more than a few days it will be yet another their word on something, making their word worth that much less. If they hit most dates and occasionally missed one my opinion would be different, but the fact of the matter is that they never hit a meaningful date except on tiny no content bug patches. They need to connect game development and reality and public information into one big cohesive picture, and then keep that picture up to date, with good news or bad news, as long as its accurate news. This issue is not that games take a long time to develop, the issue is that what we get told and what actually happens have no actual relationship to each other at all more often than not and that is not OK, because they tie those expectations and announcements and projections to events which generate revenue for them, tying revenue to inaccurate information is exploitative and runs directly counter to the supposed spirit of the project.

What you say makes sense and is generally true.
Even with all of their transparency though, it's important to note that spectators still can't tell everything that's going on. They botch deliveries and timelines all the time and the worst part about that is that they don't keep the community up to date on when shit's gonna go sideways. But by doing that, they save face and constant potential whiplash.
I still think it's fine that they're development is this stagnat though because it finally looks like their infastructure is shaping up for the biggest picture in mind. They've had the studios slaving away on all sorts of shit for the longest time but this new level of interconnectivity shouldn't be misinterpreted or underestimated. Up until now the excuse of still hiring talent and building the systems required to get the framework up and running to automate processes that would otherwise take days has been completely valid.
This "game" has taught me a lot about tempered expectations and I'm allowing them a few more years to get a full competent release shipped. 3.0 will give publicity up the ass because it will feel like a true game but unfortunately that means generic youtubers and twitch streamers will jump on board which will cause an outbreak of autism from every corner of the internet to blindly bash and/or throw money at the project. I view this as a bad thing.
It is worth noting that even now, after the last few years, anyone who has backed <$100 had already gotten their money's worth out of CIG and co. simply because of the modules already out. It's more of a AAA title than all of the half assed bullshit early access dribble garbage of the past 5 years. That's not even taking the weekly updates and shows into account. Those are surprisingly awesome nearly every time.
What I'm trying to say here is that if you weren't ready for a decade long haul at the time of the kickstarter and you're complaining, it's your own goddamn fault.

All I've seen from RSI from the start has been progress built upon progress and this schedule video was a welcome sight even if it was just a 20 min explanation saying that the backers are given as much as fucking possible as it is.
It's like people forget that part of the inception for star citizen was to give a giant middle finger to publishers. Turns out the customers can end up being worse than publishers. Chris probably learned super early from derik smart and all the drams revolved around that bullshit to act like they externally care at a rediculous extent to listen to their fanbase. Even going so far as to build Spectrum. But fuck all that noise, make the boy's dream and give me my battlestar galactica.

well just like dsmart you're welcome to leverage your impotent criticisms of the self-made autist known as CR and the game that you can't actually affect the development of in any meaningful way and waste god knows how much of your time doing it. i don't care. here you are spending time trying to affect something you can't.

point being that this game is immune to criticism or quite frankly anything that might hope to disrupt its development because of the top toddler's spessvision surrounding the title. he has his money. he barely has to listen to anyone anymore. you can choose to use 4chan /vg/ /scg/ to air complaints but they're heard by no one. you don't induce refunds or shake confidence to any great extent.

How so? When they have a rabid fanbase of dads with disposable income ready to dump on their next piece of concept art, they have no financial pressures at all. Funding has been on an upward trend every year since the Kickstarter, and kids shitposting on 4channel and plebbit won't bother them. Not to mention the fact that their official forums are modded by equally retarded cultists to cut out any inkling of criticism.

UPKEEP my friend Upkeep.
It doesn't matter if Kevin Newb can get his Javelin after 1000000hours of ferrying crate with ARGO and respawn it for 5% of its price (or you know, playing 100h and getting bigger ship)

What matter is how long you can use it and what module/refill you can afford for it.
A hypothetical solo admiral will only be able to afford to use his Javelin for in-game high-paying mission and who the fuck care what they do? (also they'll serve as target for pirate)
An Org who want to defend his territory need to be able to field capital ship without a payback. (you can't count on having the time to loot) And the org is GOOD if it can even afford better stuff.

> and now the game is "who has the most javelins"
Making Javelin incapable of fighting 1vs1 unless you have human crew is the worst solution to avoid this. It will just push Org toward anti-cap strategy since those will be a money sink that can never be used

The 2nd worst solution would be to make players magically improve a ship with rules different from NPC, that's what E:D is doing right now: magic pip

>just taking this thing out for a night of org play should be on the level of a hardcore 40 man raid night, to make a shit MMO analogy

That's indeed a less than good analogy. A 40 man raid in WoW is 40 peoples who are each their own combat unit with strength weakness and specialization.
A more expected/FUCKING EPIC analogy would be for a SC "40 man raid" to be 1 Javelin, 1 Idris, 4 fighters (with or without radar ship) 2 Polaris, 4 Retaliator and if range isn't a problem 10 bombers
Leaving you rooms for 4 captain(+admiral Whitey Whal), 12 pilots, and 22 crew (with optionally 10 bomber-pilot)

Fill the rest with NPC-CREW, they are here for players to spawn in and not have to be onboard you during the 10hours flights

Beware of not becoming a DAD, that's not because real warship take 130 persons that a videogame shouldn't make 129 of them NPC and give you bonus for additional players

>And given that the Network Bind/Unbind is listed as a stretch goal it's likely we aren't going to see the performance improvements to the PU in initial 3.0 release.
what did he mean by this
network/fps optimization is the only reason to look forward to 2.7/3.0
>>
>>1740389320
3.0 simply won't be feature complete without that netcode, it won't fucking run that much shit at once. anything bigger than a starfarer is going to melt the servers, any more than 24 players isnt actually an option period, 10 times the ingame map area including massive celestial bodies - the game will not fucking happen without the netcode, and they know this

so i really don't see june being a remotely close estimate unless netcode is currently being knocked out really hard by some really badass devs somewhere

i'm thinking some sad iteration of 3.0 will happen before gamescom, and maybe another big flashy gameplay hype train trailer at gamescom for the real 3.0 that everyone is expecting

they are self sabotaging so hard by not removing the most important core aspect of the game that prevents the game from happening, or being close to enjoyable in whatever state it's in

Every patch we see the same old song and dance. Some significant population of players is either irrate that mission pay outs have been nerfed and the game is now even more of a grind and that they'll never progress anywhere or get a big ship or... or that they have been buffed and now credits are meaning less and we'll have newbies in anaconda's all over the damn place!

Honestly, I have believed for almost a year of updates and patches "breaking" the game, that the fix was super simple, and I cannot understand how frontier have missed it up to this point:

Lock missions to your combat/trade/exploration rank. Period. Done. Elite missions pay great so that veteran players can support flying a large ship, and have the ability to experiment with modules/load outs with out have to worry too much about going bankrupt, and newbie players don't have access to those missions, and therefore can't progress "too quickly."


It's seriously, seriously simple, and I cannot, for the life of me, understand why Frontier ever un-rank-locked them in the first place.


What say you all!? Rank lock missions again to pace progression while allowing those who are dedicated to still crank out credits and "enjoy the game?" Or do we continue the buff/nerf cycle on mission pay outs ad infinitum until everyone is upset (if they aren't already)?

>>174043242
just like space is currently miles of bare nothing. it's another place to go, mainly to host your underground dragonfly racing / gladiator arena betting matches out the back of your swag ass ship

surely you didnt expect them to make 3-5 inhabitable generic moons that are fully decked out with signs of civilization and nature? or them to actually release even one fully complete planet completely covered in factories and cityscape for 3.0? there was "3.0 will happen by november 2016" then theres whatever kind of pitiful this is, if this is what you thought was on it's way any time soon

It's never coming out.
>>
>>174042193
This would be great. This is an awesome idea!

Until you realize that the game has three diffrent "Classes" (Explorer, trader, combat) to "Level."

If I'm Elite in combat, I'm not going to take up a penniless-level trade mission.

>>174044248
Jesus he is so fucking fat. If he ever clogs an artery the resulting heart attack will go off like a bomb and take out half the building.

Star Citizen won't be out for another 5 years and that's being conservative.

You you don't seem to understand that Chris Roberts is completely insane and adding features faster than can be worked off.

4 years ago the release date was 3 years away. Today it is 5 years away minimum.

The last time I saw him (probably the video where they first announced that Erin and the U.K team would be handling S42) he looked fairly normal.
Now he looks clearly overweight and unhealthy.

I feel bad for him that his brother has dragged him into this kickstarter scam pipedream mire. They worked on Lego games for 10+ years before it so it's not like they would be out of a job if chris didn't con them to work on his pipedream scam shit
